Takes all the micromanagement out of making sure you have enough money allocated toward making sure the city gets the resources it needs. Note that you'll need the Prefab Hook mod if you want this one to work. This is a nice little cleanup mod to make sure that if you're putting Industries on top of an existing city that all your vehicles come along for the ride and work with the DLC's systems. That said, the Steam Workshop is chock-full of great mods, and I'm going to mainly focus on the ones that make gameplay tweaks rather than purely cosmetic additions (content packs are great, of course, but they're not really “must-have.”)Īs far as I've been able to gather, these all work with Industries, but as always with modding your game, these aren't officially supported, so if you install a mod and it breaks your game, you're on your own. And the official ones are far better (and more compatible!) than downloading a mod, so if you care about that stuff, just buy Mass Transit. Others, like some of the anti-crash and performance mods, found themselves incorporated into patches as the devs had a “why didn't we think of that?” moment when someone showed up their QA team.Īnd still others, like Improved Public Transit, were effectively rendered obsolete when those options showed up in DLC packs, most notably the Mass Transit expansion. Some of the essential mods, like unlimited ore and oil, have been built into the game itself as menu options choose-able at the beginning of gameplay.
